That skeleton contained an immense spiritual power. While it did not have its own awareness, it could not be treated as an inanimate object.

It’s just that when Lin Feng used the Barrier-Breaking Stone to shift it to this desolate Middle World, the skeleton was in an extremely unstable state. The strength that it contained could be unleashed any time.

Under such a circumstance, without the activation of the Golden Roc Grand Sage, it’s likely that things would settle down.

Or it could explode and cause the Middle World to be completely destroyed.

However, Lin Feng did not detect the presence of the skeleton as he came to this Middle World. This left him a little surprised.

Although Lin Feng could tell that Liang Pan was hiding some of his abilities and had some tricks up his sleeves, finding the skeleton that was shifted around freely still required some effort.

The Supreme Heavenly Mirror was still in the Black Sea and Yan Nanlai could do nothing to find the Hades skeleton.

Among everyone else present, the Golden Roc Grand Sage was killed by the Heavenly Charms Grand Sage. Thus, it couldn’t be him.

Since the Heavenly Charms Grand Sage killed the Golden Roc Grand Sage, some clues could be obtained from the Golden Roc Grand Sage. But she still needed time to kill the Golden Roc Grand Sage. Logically speaking, she shouldn’t have been faster than Lin Feng’s Thunder Dragon Avatar.

“Is it the Peacock Grand Sage?” Lin Feng pondered in his mind. The whereabouts of the Peacock Grand Sage was a mystery. Whether he was here to search for the skeleton, Lin Feng couldn’t verify yet.

While the Golden Roc Grand Sage and the Peacock Grand Sage were very close to each other, it’s debatable whether the Golden Roc Grand Sage would share such an important treasure with the Peacock Grand Sage.

However, Lin Feng felt that the sudden disappearance of the Hades skeleton had nothing to do with the Peacock Grand Sage. Even if the other party was able to seek out the location of the skeleton, he would still be slower than the Thunder Dragon Avatar.

After all, even though Lin Feng’s actual body used the Barrier Breaking Stone to return to the old ground of the Great Thunderclap Temple and entered the black hole, Lin Feng had already sent his Thunder Dragon Avatar to that Middle World at the first instant.

Who knew that he discovered nothing after entering the Middle World.

In the time that passed, Lin Feng left no stone unturned in this Middle World. However, he still did not manage to find that skeleton.

With the demonic cultivation of the Thunder Dragon Avatar, he would be able to seek out a piece of ordinary rock after such a long period of searching and with such great effort. What more the Hades skeleton, which contained immense demonic power?

And during this period of time, no one else entered the Middle World.

Lin Feng could subtly sense someone getting closer, but soon, this person retreated. This person’s aura was slightly similar to that of the Heavenly Charms Grand Sage. It was likely to be her avatar.

“Logically speaking, it is unlikely for others to beat me to it. If it’s not someone who was present then, then things are a little more interesting.” Lin Feng thought about Big Luo, who contacted him earlier. As he recalled what Big Luo conveyed to him, he pondered, “Don’t tell me that the Hades tribe is really about to re-appear again?”

As he thought till here, Lin Feng creased his brows, “When the Spirit Sea re-sealed that time, the mark of the Hades tribe shouldn’t have been completely removed yet. Through some calculations, it reveals that the mark would have been completely removed before the Spirit Sea re-opens in a hundred years. The Hades tribe will be able to reveal themselves again.

“But it shouldn’t be so fast either…”

Regardless whether it was Lin Feng or the Great Void Sect, they both hoped that this War of the Two Worlds would erupt as soon as possible.

This had something to do with the Origins Celestial Dragon naturally. At the same time, the possible re-appearance of the Hades tribe was also factored in.

Lin Feng controlled the Heavenly Oyster’s Golden Pearl. When he was in the Spirit Sea when it re-sealed, he developed a greater sensitivity towards the movement of the Hades Tribe. During the chaos then, the Hades Tribe was unable to remove the restraint on them. But they did not have to wait till a hundred years when the Spirit Sea would re-open again to rid themselves of the restraints that were placed on them.

“But it shouldn’t be so fast right, or am I thinking too much?” Lin Feng lifted his head slightly, “But if it isn’t the Hades tribe, then where did the skeleton disappear too? Something has also occurred within the Heavenly Oyster’s Golden Pearl, which I believe is not a coincidence.”

He shook his head and took in a deep breath. The Thunder Dragon Avatar rid himself of his human form and revealed his silvery thunder dragon self. Around its body, a quad-colored lightning flashed and there was even black radiance on the surface of the lightning.

The huge silvery thunder dragon spanned across void space and purplish radiance flashed in the eyes of the dragon. The dragon appeared to be both domineering and incredible.

Previously, he had already tried this method, but he garnered no reaction. However, after such a long time, Lin Feng re-used this method again.

It’s not because he was out of ways, but because Lin Feng knew that if someone took the skeleton away, he might be able to hide his traces for a short period of time. However, if he was going to cultivate the skeleton or use it for some ritual, it was inevitable for him to reveal his footsteps and be caught by Lin Feng.

Lin Feng cultivated the virtual entity and comprehended his own Dao of the Dual Polarities with some reference to the Demonic Book of the Heavenly Tao. Whereas his Thunder Dragon Avatar did cultivate the Demonic Book of the Heavenly Tao too and his sensitivity to the Hades skeleton was far greater than what others could imagine.

The purplish radiance in the eyes of the dragon flashed but there was no reaction. However, Lin Feng did not lose his patience and the Thunder Dragon Avatar continued to summon his own demonic powers.

After some time, the purplish radiance jerked a little and seemed to have resonated with something in the distance. It extended out, as if it was forming a path.

Although this path appeared to be very unstable and only revealed itself at times, Lin Feng laughed as he saw this scene. The huge silvery dragon turned and followed this path towards the distance. He left the Middle World that he was in right now.

After a few moments, Lin Feng’s expression changed suddenly. As he looked over, he saw changes happening in void space.

In dark void space, an eye-blinding purple radiance spread and concealed the lights of the stars in the universe.

As the purplish radiance expanded out, it enacted a petrifying scene. A frightening strength vibrated and jerked the skies. Lin Feng could even see traces of void space being destroyed.

As void space destructed, chaos descended. The purplish radiance continued to destroy regenerated void space as soon as they formed.

The source of this frightening scene was the center of the purplish radiance, where there was a piece of intriguing skeleton.

From this Hades skeleton, streaks and streaks of purplish light spurted out and countless talismans and runes spread in all directions. As they spread in void space, they turned the entire void space purple, seemingly forming a new world.

Even Lin Feng’s Thunder Dragon Avatar was also urged to submit in the face of this frightening might.

The dragon stature of the dragon tribe was naturally greater than the rest of other forms of life. It was as if they were the rightful rulers of the world and they were a royal presence.

However, in the face of the Hades skeleton, the Dragon Awe Auspicious Clouds around Lin Feng’s Thunder Dragon Avatar started to disperse.

“As the last royal presence in the Barren Expanses, the Hades tribe was indeed very mighty during their period of rule.” Lin Feng shook his head, “This dragon avatar of mine is already very special after I’ve cultivated it. If it’s any other dragon, I’m afraid that it’ll be suppressed to an even greater extent.”

“Only when the bloodline is purified and the body of the Immemorial Celestial Dragon is re-formed can this might of the Hades tribe be suppressed? But against this skeleton of the Hades Emperor, even a Celestial Dragon in the Vipralopa Stage would still be under immense pressure. However, this skeleton is not entirely alive. It can still be restrained. But we’ll just have to guard against its immense strength.”

Lin Feng swept his surroundings and realized that the skeleton was actually being guided by someone. The force used was not as intense as it was when the Golden Roc Grand Sage summoned the skeleton. Rather, this force was exerted with some sort of rhythm.

But as this scene drifted into Lin Feng’s eyes, he did not seem to be pleased.

The other party that was guiding this piece of skeleton was likely to be a Hades Beast that came from the same tribe as the Hades Emperor!

“It’s really the Hades tribe. What are they planning to do?” Lin Feng’s gaze flashed slightly, “If they have freed themselves of the restraints of the Spirit Sea, they should be able to return to the Greater World directly. Why would they need this skeleton for some kind of ritual?”

Lin Feng’s furrowed his brows. Just at this point, he saw that the eye-blinding purplish radiance was forming a blurry, illusory spiritual altar at this point.

The lines of the spiritual altar were a little vague and unclear. However, the way concept that came from within left Lin Feng and the others a little vexed. In the center of the altar, a beam of bright light shot towards void space above, all the way into the depths of the universe.

Although the light beam seemed to shoot towards void space above the altar, there was actually no direction to talk of in the chaotic void space at the edge of the Greater World. It was difficult to determine the direction in which the light beam was projected towards. It was only clear that the light beam was being projected towards a particular location of another world.

Lin Feng squinted his eyes and his supernatural awareness scanned around. He sensed the aura exuded from the light beam and his expression changed, “This altar is like a marking that’s guiding something.”

After pondering for a moment, Lin Feng seemed to be enlightened suddenly. “Right, so the Hades tribe is trying to shift their ancestral ground.”

Ever since the last War of the Two Worlds, the Hades Tribe had been hiding themselves in a Middle World. That Middle World was not connected to the external worlds. It was only possible to enter that Middle World if a powerful cultivator was able to tear the boundaries of the world apart.

And in that Middle World, the Hades City was erected, representing the ancestral ground of the Hades Tribe.

After the Hades Emperor forced the Demonic Apes to submit and heavily damaged the Lingyuan Moutains, the Hades City became a presence even greater than the Lingyuan Mountains. When the Hades tribe disappeared, the Hades City also disappeared along with them.

This was a back-up plan that the Hades Emperor left behind – combining the Hades City with the Middle World.

During the conflict in the Spirit Sea in the past, the demons of the Hades tribe did not summon the powers of their ancestral ground as they followed the instructions of the Hades Emperor and also for fear of retaliation by the Spirit Sea. Right now, as the Hades Tribe freed themselves from the restraint of the Spirit Sea, they wanted to bring the Hades City along with them into the Greater World.

“To be able to initiate this ritual even while he’s segregated by the powers of the spatial boundaries, the person doing this must be extremely powerful!” Lin Feng’s pupils shrank but he did not react slowly. The claws of his Thunder Dragon Avatar moved and a few streaks of light flew out. They spiraled towards the spiritual altar.

The demonic powers of Lin Feng’s Thunder Dragon Avatar was only just summoned before the spiritual altar jerked. The bright purplish radiance wreaked havoc, as if it was a tsunami.
